Holy moly..

Working on my MacBook and out of nowhere: *click* dead..

Try to restart it, fan spinning for a second, then: nothing.. recovery mode. Nothing..
FUCK!!

Doing research on my iPhone.. see Louis rossmann had a case like this in which one foot of the clock on the main board doesn’t have connection.

But I don’t have the right tools to open the MB..

I turn it around, shake it shake it shake it shake it baby like Taylor swift, knock on the back, knock on the keyboard and voila.. working again😪

Didn’t think that still works with modern technology..

Feels bad man

@ePinikion yea, especially because my backup disk is full so I didn’t do one recently..
I know i deserve it then. But I was too lazy to get a new one..

Mac is basically 10-15 years behind on PCs. In 2016, while I was forced to work with OSX, I had issues I've never seen since leaving Windows 98 (Rebooting thrice to make it actually boot).

In 2017, there was a security issue that you could log in as root by smashing the enter key often enough. Microsoft TOM had the same issue 2 decades prior. Windows 98 had something similiar: You could log in by hitting cancel on the login screen.

Now, they try to replicate Vista's UAC, because they never heard about the fact that users just click "Yes" on everything - even if it says "Yes, allow this app to fuck me, burn my house, rape my wife/husband and sell my kids to some pedo by the hour", just like Microsoft did in 2007.

Crapple even failed, in the Mac Mini, to isolate the Mainboard from the metal case (which happened a lot to novice PC builders during the 1990s).

ROLF; Apple in a nutshell!

Did you reset smc and p-ram? This often fixes a lot different problems, like fans, ports, battery issues

If it has a motherboard, the drop fix'll still help.
